The first processor is connected to the wireless module, and the wireless module is configured to perform the electronic device wake-up method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure to wake up the processor.

In a practical application, the wireless module is connected to the first processor through a data line. When the electronic device is in normal operation, the wireless module can receive the control signal sent by the wireless terminal, and send the received wireless control signal to the A processor that implements control of an electronic device using a wireless terminal. In the present disclosure, the wireless module may be a radio module such as an RF (Radio Frequency) transceiver module or a (WIFIWireless-Fidelity). In addition, the processor can also be connected to the receiving end of the wireless module and the Reset pin for controlling the restart of the wireless module.

In this embodiment, the wireless module can be connected to the processor, the wireless module can capture the shutdown signal of the processor, or the wireless module can be connected to the power supply module of the electronic device, and the wireless module can capture the first power-on signal of the electronic device. .

The wireless module can be designed with various wake-up modes, such as wake-up on the above (the user can wake up through the wireless terminal after the electronic device is connected to the power supply), and normal wake-up (common users press the power button of the electronic device to start the power) Sub-device), special wake-up (user wakes up through the wireless terminal, can customize the custom function that is automatically turned on when the wake-up is on the bright screen, etc.), sleep wake-up (wake-up in sleep state). In practical applications, the various wake-up modes described above can be flexibly configured as needed.

After the executable file is received, the power supply module is controlled to stop power supply for the first processor.

In this embodiment, the firmware of the wireless module can be updated when the electronic device is powered on or off, to solve the firmware bug, or to add the function of the wireless module. For example, when the electronic device is powered on (the power cable is plugged into the power socket) and the wireless module is in the power supply state, the wireless module's own processor will run (the wireless module's rom has the default firmware), and the wireless module will The power supply module of the power supply module is pulled high, the power supply module supplies power to the CPU, so that it is in working state. The CPU starts to establish communication through the data bus and the wireless module. At this time, the CPU can determine that the power is awake at this time, and the CPU can be restarted through the reset line. Wireless module (the state of the power supply line cannot be changed at this time, because the CPU needs to supply power), and the latest executable file is sent to the wireless module through the data bus (updated than the executable file currently stored by the wireless module, such as solving some bugs or Achieved new features).

After the above actions are completed, the CPU task is completed, and the wireless module can be notified to the CPU by the data bus. After the wireless module receives the power-off command, the power supply line of the power supply module is pulled low, and the CPU is powered off.

Afterwards, the wireless module can monitor whether the first control signal sent by the wireless terminal is received, and after receiving, the wireless module controls the power supply module to supply power to the first processor to wake up the first processor.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the electronic device is powered off, or after the electronic device is powered on again, the latest executable file is sent to the wireless module, so that the wireless module is updated to operate in a better state.

In this embodiment, a device list may be pre-stored, and each associated wireless terminal is recorded in the device list. In the list, the wireless terminal identifier may be recorded, and the wireless terminal identifier may be the number of the wireless terminal or the wireless terminal. The ID may be a device terminal name, or may be a MAC (Media Access Control) address, etc., as long as the wireless terminal can be uniquely identified.

The above events require the timing function to be turned on. In the related art, the timer is used to perform the timing function by using a timer. In this step, the first processor may send the sleep duration to the wireless module, and the wireless module performs the timing function.

In step 302, when it is determined by the sleep timer that the sleep duration arrives, or when the second control signal sent by the target wireless terminal is received before the sleep duration arrives, it is determined that the first processor needs to be woken up.

In this step, when it is determined by the sleep timing that the sleep duration arrives, it indicates that the first processor needs to process the timing event, and thus it is determined that the first processor needs to be woken up. Or, before the sleep timer arrives, it is monitored whether the second control signal sent by the target wireless terminal is received. The second control signal may be the same as or different from the first control signal described above. Generally, when the electronic device is in a sleep state, the user can press the physical key in the wireless terminal to start the electronic device.

If there is a timing event, such as an alarm clock, or a reminder event set by the user, the CPU can process the timing function of the timing event by the wireless module, and the wireless module performs timing after the CPU is powered off, and monitors the occurrence time of the timing event.

When the timing arrives, the wireless module can wake up the CPU, power the CPU by pulling up the potential of the power supply line, initialize the data bus after the CPU wakes up, determine that the sleep state is awake, start to recover the scene from the memory, and then the CPU processes the timing event. . In practical applications, after the CPU processes the above timing events, if the CPU does not need to process other events, the CPU can also be powered off by the wireless module to restore the sleep state.

Or, when the CPU is in a sleep state, if the second control signal of the target wireless terminal is received, determining that the first processor needs to be awake; the second control signal may be a wake-up signal input by the user through the target wireless terminal, for example, The user presses the POWER button of the wireless terminal, or the user remotely turns on the camera of the electronic device through the smart phone; at this time, the wireless module can control the power supply. The module powers the CPU and wakes up the CPU for processing.
